Arrival/Dismissal Reminders

With the increasingly cold weather, we have had more families utilizing our drop-off and pick-up loading zone.  In order to maintain the safety of Olive-Us we ask that you please review our procedures and share them with anyone that may drop off or pick up your child.

*All students should be entering/exiting vehicles on the straight-away ONLY.  Please help us protect your child by not allowing them to exit the vehicle on or before the yellow curve.  We appreciate your help with this!  Did you know that even by waiting to enter the drop off zone all students make it into the building by 9:05?

*Students may begin arriving at 8:50 when there is supervised staff on duty.

*As students arrive we have designated waiting areas outside for each grade level.  This helps ensure the safety of students as they enter the building in an orderly manner.

*As soon as our teachers have completed their morning meetings and are in their supervision locations, the bell rings and the school doors open at 8:55 am. Teachers are then ready to greet students in the hallways near their classroom doors.

*Please be KIND to our staff that is outside in all types of weather making sure that you and your children are safe. Please also be respectful of fellow parents. If we ALL follow the procedures and understand it may take a few extra minutes to drop-off/pick-up your child from school, we can ensure our students have a great start to the day!
